So often deployed as a jingoistic, even menacing, rallying cry, or limited by a focus on passing moments of liberation, the rhetoric of freedom both rouses and repels. Does it remain key to our autonomy, justice and wellbeing, or is freedom's long star turn coming to a close? Does a continued obsession with the term enliven and emancipate, or reflect a deepening nihilism (or both)? On Freedom examines such questions by tracing the concept's complexities in four distinct realms: art, sex, drugs and climate.

La Maternitat d’Elna descobreix un dels capítols més dramàtics, tendres i desconeguts de la nostra postguerra. Entre 1939 i 1944, la suïssa Elisabeth Eidenbenz va salvar la vida de 597 infants. Eren els fills de les exiliades catalanes i espanyoles que malvivien en condicions penoses als caps de refugiats republicans de Sant Cebrià de Rosselló, Argeleres i Ribesaltes, i que van tenir la sort de ser acollides a la maternitat que va crear Eidenbenz.

Il volume, in una nuova edizione aggiornata e ampliata, traccia la storia dell'evoluzione umana avvalendosi delle più recenti acquisizioni dell'analisi dei fossili e del DNA. La scoperta di nuove specie estinte e la ricostruzione del genoma dei neandertaliani e di altre specie hanno infatti fornito dati importantissimi. Oggi non sappiamo soltanto che la specie Homo sapiens non può essere suddivisa in razze e che alcuni nostri antichi parenti erano probabilmente in grado di utilizzare un linguaggio complesso simile al nostro, ma anche che in noi sono presenti alcuni dei loro geni.

This audiobook is about my ever expanding, developing, and changing views on what I believe to be consciousness and its construct, reality. Now more than ever, I believe people need to define who they are and why they are here in this reality. The notion of a soul, or an eternal life, or what comes next are questions on everyone's mind. This is an ever-present friend or foe as we see fit. I believe consciousness and brain are the keys to this mystery, as well as to our universe.

Ever felt as though life would be simpler if it came with an instruction manual? There are no easy answers to the big questions. And life does not follow a straight path from A to B. Since the beginning of time, people have asked questions about how they should live and, from Ancient Greece to Japan, philosophers have attempted to solve these questions for us. The timeless wisdom that they offer can help us to find our own path.

Hace 90 años, uno de los personajes intelectuales fundamentales del siglo XX concretaba en "El malestar en la cultura" la idea de que entre la cultura -vista sobre todo como aglutinante y elemento fundamental para la vida en sociedad- y las pulsaciones íntimas de la psique humana, existen contradicciones profundas. La culpa, como subproducto natural de esta tensión, es el tema fundamental del texto de Freud.

En tant que société et en tant qu'individu, nous nous questionnons sur notre identité et notre personnalité, comme sur les moteurs de nos actions. Se reconnaître dans le miroir, c'est à l'échelle collective, se reconnaître dans les institutions et les règles qui régissent notre vivre-ensemble. Pour ne pas subir la loi, il faut l'avoir choisie. Héritage historique et culturel, ensemble de valeurs et de comportements, "l'esprit français" est une attitude, une culture et une identité. Toutefois la profondeur du débat est épineuse, car est-il seulement possible de dresser un portrait qui rassemble, sans diviser ni exclure ?

Philosophy for busy people. Read a succinct account of the philosophy of Leibniz in just one hour.Leibniz was the first great German philosopher to produce an all-embracing philosophical system. He came to the remarkable conclusion that space and time do not exist – they are mere superstitious assumptions. Only things exist and only God is able to see things as they truly are – from a perspectiveless viewpoint. Yet the infinite of ultimate objects that make up the world (‘monads’) are not material: they are metaphysical and thus not subject to the laws of cause and effect.

તમે માનો કે ના માનો પણ જિંદગીનું સત્ય એ છે કે, ૯૦ ટકાથી વધારે પુરુષ તેમજ મહિલાઓ ભારતમાં જ નહીં બલ્કે સંપૂર્ણ વિશ્વમાં પોતાના દિલની વાત બીજાથી નથી કહી શકતા. જ્યારે આપણે પોતાના દિલની વાત બીજાથી નથી કહી શકતા, તો એક વિચિત્ર પ્રકારની ગુંગળામણ ઉત્પન્ન થાય છે અને મન વિચલિત રહે છે. આ પુસ્તક સંપૂર્ણ માનવ જાતિના ફાયદા માટે લખવામાં આવી છે, જેથી દરેક વાચકને એ જાણ થઈ શકે કે, ફક્ત એ જ નહીં બલ્કે લાખો-કરોડો વ્યક્તિ પોતાના દિલની વાત બીજાઓથી નથી કહી શકતા.

This collection of short essays by G.K. Chesterton is as applicable in 2020 as it was when it was written in 1923 during the first "Progressive Era". He saves his most subtle and cutting humor for commentary to skewer his favorite targets: feminists, vegetarians, modernists, journalists, social reformers, psychologists, and "sophisticated" people in general.

Credevamo di essere onnipotenti e sbagliavamo. Credevamo di aver capito tutto e non avevamo capito niente. Gli anni della pandemia hanno costituito un grande reset, per tante certezze e tante convinzioni, e il risultato è un trauma collettivo di cui oggi viviamo le conseguenze: una situazione di gravissimo contrasto sociale, patologie psicologiche diffuse in forme acute soprattutto tra i giovani, un'incertezza generale sul futuro. Dobbiamo ritrovare un filo di Arianna in ciò che abbiamo vissuto e usarlo per ricucire la trama della nostra convivenza, se vogliamo sopravvivere come specie.

Questo dialogo, noto anche col nome di Simposio, è il più noto fra i dialoghi di Platone. La sua struttura non è in realtà quella di un dialogo ma una successione di orazioni effettuate dagli intellettuali ateniesi, che hanno per oggetto le lodi del dio dell'Amore (Eros). Troviamo qui, fra l'altro, la famosa descrizione dell'uomo ermafrodito, che, tagliato in due dagli dei, cercherà poi nella sua vita, la sua metà mancante, grazie alla quale, e solo grazie ad essa, ritroverà il suo senso di completezza e, quindi, la felicità.

KT Guttenberg nimmt sich die Zeit. Seine Texte auf LinkedIn, jeweils von Hunderttausenden gelesen, entspringen Alltagssituationen und Beobachtungen vom Wegesrand, er entdeckt Details unseres Lebens, die wir gern mal übersehen; er spürt Erlebnissen und Gedanken nach, die ihn inspirieren oder beunruhigen – auch, aber nicht nur, in der Politik. Er verbindet das Kleine mit dem Großen, das Absurde mit der Analyse und spiegelt das widersprüchliche Lebensgefühl unserer Zeit in einem lakonischen, immer wieder auch selbstironischen Stil.

Sette luoghi comuni. Sette bugie. Da “studia tanto e tutto andrà bene” a “se lavori come si deve presto avrai i soldi per comprare casa”, da “la politica si occuperà dei giovani” a “ormai facciamo sempre così, è troppo tardi per cambiare”: Beniamino Pagliaro racconta i problemi che le generazioni recenti si sono trovate ad affrontare, dai contratti meno tutelati a pensioni fantasma e quantomai ipotetiche, sempre con la certezza di trovarsi poi, per la prima volta in più di un secolo, più poveri dei propri genitori.
